[Gumeshoe is walking down the street, carrying a small grocery bag of some snacks and other items his home needs to restock. He's really just walking on auto pilot when a small figure catches his eye.]

"What the-?"

[Is that Kay? But she's not that small normally. Either way, it's looking like she's in trouble, so he heads over to see if he can help, and maybe get some answers.]

[Kay's been doing a good job not crying in front of strangers, but she's only been getting more and more worried and panicked as she continues to wander around. So when Gumshoe walks over and she finally recognizes a familiar face, Kay goes barreling right into him, wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug while starting to cry.]

[Hugs back to comfort Kay while his mind quickly tries to figure out what's going on or at least what to do.

1.) Kay's a young kid all of a sudden, possibly because of something in Mayfield.

2.) She seemed lost, so it's possibly her mind's set as a kid and before she came to Mayfield.

3.) She's bawling her eyes out, do something about that!]

"Hey, hey, calm down, Kay. Everything's going to be alright, okay? You just tell me what's wrong and we'll figure out what to do together, alright?

You're safe now, and I'll make sure you stay safe."

"Gummy... I-I think I'm lost."

[Gumshoe just lets her cling while she calms down, occasionally giving her a pat on the back to comfort her.]

"It's okay, this....um, this isn't your usual places you hang out, so it's understandable you got lost. New place and one wrong turn and suddenly you have no clue where you are. Why when I was starting out as a police officer, I got lost in my own precinct building almost everyday!

So where were you trying to get to, Kay?"

B-back to the courthouse... I have to wait for daddy's case to be over.

[Oh no, oh no, possibly the worst time for her memories to be! Think Gumshoe, think! Maybe go along with this for now. This might just be temporary. Hopefully.]

"The c-courthouse, of course! Um...I think we're pretty far from it at the moment, but we can start heading back if you want."

"Okay!"

[She reaches her hand out for him. It's okay since they're not strangers anymore.]

[Gives a light sigh as he takes her hand and walks with her down the sidewalk.]

"We might take awhile, but don't worry, I'm sure they'll know you're okay."

Daddy said we could go get ice cream together today when his case is over!

[Maybe he can just let her remain oblivious until this wears off...]

"That was nice of him. What's your favorite flavor of ice cream?"

Strawberry!

[Well, one good thing about Mayfield, if they keep walking in one direction, it provides a pretty convincing loop to use to stall for time...]

"Strawberry? I bet you could eat that all day, huh?"

Reply

promised_daddy January 18 2011, 01:57:09 UTC
[Yeah, and she's not likely to notice since everything looks the same anyway.]

"I bet I could even eat more of it than you!"

"Oh, is that a challenge? Maybe we should look for a strawberry ice cream contest some time to see."
